The club is saying he is a big chance to play which I find hard to believe.

Just like any game against a bottom 4 team, if we win it's just a bottom 4 team, if we lose, it's a bottom 4 team.

Yep, that one was included. 6 wins at York Park, 1 at Bellerive, 1 at North Hobart.samuraisaint wrote: ↑Wed 08 May 2024 12:39pm9/9 - we beat Fitzroy at North Hobart Oval in a match in Hobart in 1991.

Re: In a way the Hawks will be the ultimate test .
Given Hawthorn beat WB, who thrashed us by controlling the ball (and have done it before against us), imagine the vitriolic response on this Forum if Hawthorn also beat us!!!!!

Re: In a way the Hawks will be the ultimate test .
Is there any chance we could reach out to Barry Robran or perhaps a Norwood official from the last 30 years to deliver the pre-match address.Killa wrote: ↑Wed 08 May 2024 4:00pm Given Hawthorn beat WB, who thrashed us by controlling the ball (and have done it before against us), imagine the vitriolic response on this Forum if Hawthorn also beat us!!!!!

This might be enough to get the Saints across the line.

If St Kilda is half decent then they will beat the Hawks.

Thank you for your contribution, DB Cooper
Barrie Robran, who is of the same vintage as me, was indeed a champion footballer for North Adelaide (the side Wilkie played for)
And also a State cricketer where he and I played for the same side
His knee injury was a tragedy
And his 2 sons played for Norwood, not North Adelaide
So have you actually learnt something?
I, for one, will be relieved to bank a win over Hawthorn
Then on to the next week

Grew up together in Whyalla
Dad always told me Barry was the greatest ever player not to play AFL
Equally when they used to do the gf winners playoffs SANFL vs VFL Barry took a BOG against a very talented Carlton ruckman, some think he was perhaps the best of all time.
He knee injury was a cruelty as you say, the cortisone jabs have been a longer term cruelty tho
